The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Guan and Goanna watches with wide-eyes at the trio.

Odon manages to stop laughing as he sees his nephew and niece and pulls himself back up to his feet, clearing his throat to try and avoid a chuckle.

----------

Donna listens and her eyes go wide.  "That's Uncle Odon laughing!"

----------

Littlefoot listens in confusion.  "I never heard your dad laugh that loud before..."

Cera, Littlefoot, Ali with Donna and Turio arrive to see the adults still almost chuckling.

"Daddy? I never heard you laugh like that before... what going on?" Cera asked.

"Father?" Turio asked blinking at few times.

"It alright, we just old friends and did our little friendship tail slap it was quite funny... no it was very funny doing it" Zila chuckled

"I have to agree, right Odon" Mr Threehorn looked a Odon "No zappy talk like it wasn't very funny doing that movement. I am one not to laugh that loud and I couldn't even say what I felt doing that... one thing felt like I was a child again" Mr Threehorn laughed

Odon couldn't help but chuckle to the comment.  "That's one of the few things I still agree with you."

Donna gives a questioning look at her siblings, which Goanna merely shrugs.

It was Guan who answered.  "They just did a tail slap move they used to when they were kids."

"Wow!" Donna brightened.  "Can I see, too?"

Odon could only shake his head while chuckling until he calmed down some.  "Not for today," he replied.  "I know I'm getting too old for this, but that was still funny."

"No way we too old for that" Mr Threehorn said to Odon "But we can't do it too often but we never did when we was kids only when we felt like it" Mr Threehorn said to Odon

"But if we three had a wish to share I would say we all would agree to live a whole day as kids once more enjoy what we had" Mr Threehorn said to Odon and Zila.

Zila looked up seeing a shooting star in the time fly right over them and disappear then he looked back at them he was thinking of the same thing and thought did Odon think of it as well. "Odoy... did you think of wishing that as well?"

Littlefoot peers over the edge at Ducky.  "We're all up here, Ducky!" he called.

Spike hears the calling from the hill and decides to follow, somewhat curious of what's going on.

Mr Threehorn looked at Odon as well wondering if he did wish that in his head as well like Zila did at the same time as Mr Threehorn said it. "I wonder if Odon did... I have a strange feeling he did say in his head what I said out loud" Mr Threehorn said quietly to himself.

Whatever Odon did wish, he would not say it, so he kept it silently to himself.

The spikethumbs kids watch on in wonder.

"What did you think he wished for?" Donna whispered.

Goanna shrugs, and it was Guan who answered.

"It's best we don't question him about that right now," he whispered back.

Mr Threehorn looked at Zila and Odon "I'll see you two tomorrow... I'm going to get something to eat" he walks away.

"Daddy I'm comming" Cera went after him with Trihorn.

Zila looked at Turio "Lets go to the water and get something to eat"

"Yes Father I am hunger" Turio follows him down to Ducky and Spike after asking them they go back to Ducky's mum and stepdad Sam to have a good stomach full to eat.

Odon looks to the remaining kids.  "I'll take Goanna and Donna home.  Guan, how about you help the others back home to their families."

Guan salutes, watching his uncle and sisters head home back to their nest, then turns to Littlefoot and Ali, leading them home to their families.

They all depart for the day and by the next morning Odon wakes up from his sleep with the sun not even appearing in view as the orange in the sky shown from the raises but when he looked at Guan noticing something different he was larger then he remembered seeing Guan.

Odon's eyes started to widen that Guan is in fact larger than him!  Suddenly, he felt a playful bump behind him and forcing him to turn on his side to come face to face with another little spikethumb...not Donna, but another male...and he knows who he is!

"C'mon Odoy!" the spikethumb cheered.  "Let's go play before dad takes us into training again!"

Odon was silent in shock.  "...Spikefoot?"

"Of course, silly!" Spikefoot smiled big, but the smile faded when he sees Guan and his sisters still sleeping.  "Who are they?"

Odon looks over at the (other) children and then back to Spikefoot.  "Um...give me a minute."

Odon leaps onto his feet and runs over to Guan, bumping him awake.

Guan stirs and groans.  "Donna...it's far too early to play..."

"It's not Donna, Guan, it's Odon!"

Guan looks around in confusion.  "Uncle Odon?  You sound younger than I th..."  Guan's eyes widen in shock at the sight of the little spikethumb, with a VERY familiar scar on his right front leg.  "H...How...?"

"No time to explain," Odon hissed at a whisper.  "The wish I made last night did more than make me young.  It also brought back Spikefoot.  My brother!  YOUR FATHER!"

Guan stumbles back and nearly hits his sisters, but his landing jars them awake.  Odon had to clear back to avoid getting hit, and then comes across to Guan and the girls, who are suddenly wide awake.

"He's also young, so he does not remember you," Odon said, trying to take control of the situation.  "From this point on, you must call me Odon...or Odoy, and your father must be called by his actual name, Spikefoot."

Donna's widen.  "Daddy's....?"

"Yes, he's here for today, but he's as young as I am now, so he does not know you..."

Spikefoot approaches the others.  "I wonder what you said to them to make them jump like that, Odoy.  By the way, I'm Spikefoot.  Pleased to meet you."

The three children could only stare...

Odon heard sudden shout from two young voices as they got closer "How can I stay calm I am a kid again! I can't face Cera like this! I managed to get away from the nest but that not point"

"And shouting isn't helping either! like to wake the valley up!?" Zila said back loudly

"Zila just..." Mr Threehorn saw Odon "see I told you so!"

"Fine you was right..." Zila muttered "Tops I'll give you the treestars later..."

"I'll keep that in mind" Mr Threehorn replied looking at Odon "Well Odon... looks like our joined wish got us in a real big mess" He and Zila stood there in front of them with Guan, Donna and Goanna mouths hanging wide

Zila noticed Spikefoot "Is that?"

Spikefoot sees Threehorn and Zila and he perks up.  "Tops!  Zil Zil!  You're up early too!  I was just meeting some new spikethumbs that Odoy may know."

Guan, Goanna, and Donna knew they have to act fast, and they spring up onto their feet.

Guan found the words to speak.  "Um...hi Spikefoot.  I'm Guan, and these are my sisters, Goanna and Donna."

Spikefoot smiles.  "Pleased to meet you.  Are you relatives of ours?  The marks on your tails are the same as mine."

"They're...distant relatives that joined our heard," replied Odon.  He then turns to Threehorn and Zila to explain.  "That wish I made also brought back my brother, but he doesn't even know his own kids.  I want you both to play along."

Threehorn almost about to grunt a bit about the idea then he whispered back "Well it won't work for long Odon, remember Cera... Turio and the rest of the Valley this type of news wouldn't stay quiet for long... I'll play along but just warning by the time the bright circle raised above the wall of the Great Valley this will leak out like wild fire" Threehorn said to Odon knowing far well he was right.

Zila nods "I'll do it but when it comes to Turio things might get a bit out of control and with the others in the Great Valley and Spikefoot will notice something odd soon as the land don't look like what he knows" Zila whispered to Odon "But till that comes we will play along".

Zila and Threehorn looked at Spikefoot. "Guess we are all up earily for once"

"After you woke me Zila..." Threehorn muttered "But since I'm up no point keeping a grumpy mood" Threehorn said then thinks about Cera

"I meant only with Spikefoot," whispered Odon.  "Only we truly know who he is and what happened to him.  Everyone else in the Great Valley will see him as another little spikethumb.  But it's true they will find out about us being kids..."

"Oh c'mon!" groaned Spikefoot outloud.  "Are we gonna play or what?"

"Oh I see, well I hope it works out." Zila whispered to Odon then looked at Spikefoot "We are just still a bit sleepy."

"Daddy?" a voice called out and Threehorn gulped "Oh no it Cera... she can't see me like this!" he whispered to Odon

Before he reacted Cera came up to them looking at the group "Whoa... ok... new swimmer, two new spikethumbs this is new... what going on? where D..." Cera looked at the blackish grey threehorn with wide eyes "Daddy!?" he only nods "Ahh!" Cera screached then fainted in front of them falling to her side.

"Oh great..." Threehorn muttered
